Blues Right Disable Edge At Hitchcock

Hockey Betting Lines

Alexander Semin scored the lone goal for the Capitals, who had won three of four. But Washington was able to extend its streak of games with at least one goal scored to 31 contests to start the 2011-12 season, the longest streak to begin a season since Washington went 31 games without being shut out to kick off 2009-10.

 

Michal Neuvirth turned aside 26-of-28 shots in defeat.

 

Less than a minute later, Johnson gave the Avalanche the lead back. Johnson's slapper from the right point beat traffic in front and got past Neuvirth.

 

Game Notes

 

Colorado has won three of the last four meetings...The Avs started a four-game homestand on Saturday...Colorado has won five in a row at the Pepsi Center...Washington went 0-for-4 on the power play, while Colorado went 0- for-2 on the man advantage.

 

Jordan Eberle and Ryan Jones each scored for the Oilers, who have dropped three straight and five of six. Nikolai Khabibulin stopped 34 shots in the loss.

 

Niemi made nine saves, including a couple of stops on an Edmonton power play halfway through the frame, to give the team the win.

 

Edmonton tied the game with 2:44 left in the first when Eberle used good stickhandling down the left wing to get around the defender and cut into the front before stuffing it in the right side.

 

Skating shorthanded, the Oilers took a 2-1 lead 5:28 into the second as Jones picked off an errant pass in the neutral zone and buried his breakaway chance for his 10th goal of the year.

 

The Sharks host Tampa Bay on Wednesday...Edmonton, which finished a three-game road trip with three losses in regulation, hosts Detroit on Monday...San Jose has taken three of four from Edmonton in each of the past three seasons.

 

The Blues continue to rack up points since Hitchcock relieved a fired Davis Payne on Nov. 7. They have gone 12-2-4 since the coaching switch and sit in a tie for fifth in the Western Conference, four points back of first place in the Central Division.

Chiefs' Treen Green out for Sunday's game

How long Trent Green will remain sidelined is unknown. Coach Herm Edwards said Monday he will miss a second straight start Sunday when the Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers.

A two-time Pro Bowler, Green was going into a feet-first hook slide when he was knocked unconscious by a thunderous, head-snapping hit from Cincinnati's Robert Geathers.
